In my 220 gallon I have 2 large Oscars, a 6-7" Jaguar, a 4" Texas Terror, a 4-5" Bluegill, a 4" Striped Raphael Catfish, and a 16" pleco. They all get along very nicely. I had concerns about the texas terror because when I first saw him he was bowing up to other fish. He was in the same tank as the Jag and the were getting along so I took a chance. It paid off because it hasn't shown any aggression to any of it's tank mates.
Sorry about the poor pictures and the flash. it's the only way I could even get them to come out with this poj camera.
As you can see, I'm not done with the tank yet. The heater is temporary until I get some submersibles to go in the sump.

You can see his back half in the second to last picture. i will be happy to keep trying to get a pic of him, but he is very elusive to my junky camera. He is always moving and the photo comes out blurry. The bluegill is the same.

I am so glad you asked. You gave me luck. I guess he was more dormant with a full belly.
Here are more really bad pics. And now the glass is dirty from the water where I was getting the left over feeders out.

here is my Texas Terror

Is a texas terror a hybrid? Or is that just a synonym for regular ol' Green Texas (Carpinthe) cichlid? That's what he appears to be IMO. Nice one though :)

Idk. The guy I bought it from was calling it a Texas Terror. He had an amazing set up and was running a fish business out of his apartment. He seemed very knowledgeable so I just went along with what he told me. You could be right though
